"Among his numerous writings the "Sinner's Guide" is one of the most practical. For more than three hundred years it has been the means of enlightening many souls and leading them in the path of true justice. It has been translated into almost every European language, besides the Chinese and Persian, When naming the work the author doubtless bore in mind the declaration of St. John, that we have all sinned ; for the book is suitable for all, whether sinners or just. The method he follows is comprehensive, embracing the entire scope of the spiritual life, at least as far as it is attained by ordinary Christians. A special merit of the "Sinner's Guide " is the copious use the author makes of Sacred Scripture and the Fathers. He constantly supports his teaching by these invincible authorities."
